The next topic is a memorable home which pairs easily with an engaged home. My recommendation is to take a day each week for rest and play for family and friends. My husband and I decided about a year ago to start celebrating the Sabbath on Saturdays. For us, the Sabbath is not about a list of do’s and don’ts or religious ceremony and rules. We just felt like celebrating the Sabbath was a great tradition to start doing for a lot of reasons. First, it was God’s idea so it deserved some consideration. Second, Jesus called Himself the Lord of the Sabbath. So, we decided to start celebrating the Sabbath as a way to really focus on our family and on Jesus. I love the Sabbath. We don’t do any chores or shopping – we save those for Sunday – our work at home day. The Sabbath is truly a day of celebration for us. We really focus on spending quality time with each other – having fun with each other, going to the park, visiting with friends and family, and we almost always go to church on Saturday evening to round out our Sabbath day.
So, I encourage you to see if you can take a day or even an evening each week to really focus on bonding with each other – making memories that will keep your children’s hearts full of your love.
